white dove release

Does anyone know if a license is needed for a release business in Phx. Az?
If so what type ? I cannot find it anywhere on the city of Phx website and everything on the phone is automated and cannot ever talk to a live person.
Thanks

I think if you want to have a business then you would go to you're county and get a business license, then you will have to pay taxes depending on how much you bring in, but you can also right off business expenses.

if you only want to do it part time just for fun and the party you are doing it for gives you a donation, then I would not get a business license for that.

Thanks Corbin and spirit wings for your reply,
Yes I am ready to make millions on this adventure.LOL
I thought I would try to fly them in my area just once and awhile.
Mostly just for fun,and a couple bucks.I've tried to contact people that have white dove releases but got no replies,Everyone treats this like it is a big top secret business.

Thats probably because they wont want competition, are only doing it as a hobby, or as in a lot of cases, using White Doves that cannot home instead of White Homing Pigeons that are properly trained.

Quazar, Thanks for the reply,Also in my opinion I believe that is why there is a decline in the pigeon hobby.No one is too willing to help a newcomer.I myself have tried in the past to join a pigeon club here in Phx.only to be met with no return e-mails or phone calls

You should continue to try here on PT. There are many caring individuals that help new people get started, provide information on everything possible about pigeons and their care, and can help you find breeders, clubs, pigeon friendly vets,etc.

Your welcome. And we appreciate your sharing those experiences too. One of my first posts was about the aging of our hobby. I asked why we weren't attracting more younger folks. But I have since noticed that there have been many newbies between the ages of 11 and 22 joining PT. and I am amazed at how many people there are from Europe, Asia, and Australia/New Zealand. I fear that it's not as popular in the U.S. as it once was but there still hope!

Would that be the AZpigeon club? I sent them dues this year and never heard anything back. Its sad because this club has a good rep online however no one I meet has anything good to say. Plus they throw meets up in Campe Verde all the time.
